Multibagger small cap stock Network People Services share price soared 18% on Wednesday, September 16, tracking gains in the broader Indian stock markets. The positive sentiment around the stock was also supported by the company’s recent recognition at the Global Fintech Awards 2026, where it won the ‘Best Digital Banking Platform’ award last week.
The small-cap stock jumped as much as 18% to its day’s high of ₹1,932.60 per share on the BSE. The rally adds to its strong near-term performance, with the stock rising nearly 12% in 1 week, 18% in 1 month, 20.5% in 3 months and 113% in 6 months.
However, the stock has lost 9.5% in the last 1 year. Despite this, its longer-term performance has been remarkable, with the scrip soaring 7,660% in 5 years.
Following Wednesday’s sharp surge, Network People Services shares are now just 10% away from their 52-week high of ₹2,141.00, which was hit in September 2025.
At the other end of the range, the stock touched its 52-week low of ₹849.50 in March 2026.
